Tonight was knit night with a bunch of friends.  I was smart and decided not to work on my shawl.  After spending most of yesterday on one row, why tempt fate and try again? 

Instead, I cast on some Tofutsie socks.  I had a great visit with a new friend on the phone today who pointed me to a no-brainer rib.  Of course, I had to use my brains for the first few rows because I kept messing it up.  lol  After I really got rolling on it, I did well until I noticed I forgot to purl for about 10 rows in one of the ribs … but hey, it was easy to drop that stitch down and fix it.

You can’t see the ribbing at all in this.  The lighting was terrible and this was the best I could do.  I’m not wild at all about the colors of this yarn, I always wonder what I see before I actually start to knit with it.   I do like the yarn though, it will make a great summer sock.  I plan to make a short cuff so these should go really fast.  Everyone else has had to add many more stitches than they normally do, but mine seem okay at 64 on a size 0.  The label says to use 2s but I can’t imagine how loose they would be.  I’m an average knitter and these seem a little loose on 0s.
